Definitions

  • This invention relates to digital television signal processing systems and, in particular, to digital color signal filter and demodulation systems.
  • an analog video signal When an analog video signal is to be processed digitally in a television receiver, it is necessary to first digitally encode the video signal in an analog-to-digital converter.
  • the analog-to-digital converter samples the video signal in accordance with the Nyquist criterion at a rate which is generally related to the color subcarrier frequency (e.g., three times or four times the color subcarrier frequency). If an NTSC video signal is sampled at a rate of four times the color subcarrier (4f sc ), the signal samples consist of sums and differences of luminance and chrominance information signals.
  • the chrominance portion of the samples occur in the sequence -(B-Y), (R-Y), (B-Y) and -(R-Y). If the sampling phase coincides with the I axis of the color burst signal (57°), then the chrominance samples occur in the sequence I, Q, -I, and -Q.
  • luminance and chrominance information may be separated by comb filtering or horizontal filtering to produce a sequence of luminance signal samples and a sequence of color mixture signal samples, the latter being of either the -(B-Y), (R-Y) form or the I, Q form. At this point, both signals usually occur at the rate of the sampling signal used by the analog to digital converter. While the high sampling rate must generally be maintained in the luminance channel, the lower bandwidth color signals may have their sampling rate decreased in accordance with their Nyquist criterion.
  • the color mixture signal sequences described above for the 4f sc sampling rate are modulated at the color subcarrier frequency, with each signal sample being a unique piece of chrominance information. Accordingly, quadrature demodulations can be accomplished by selecting alternate samples at two outputs at a rate of two times the color subcarrier.
  • the two demodulated color signal sequences are -(B-Y), (B-Y), -(B-Y), (B-Y) and (R-Y), -(R-Y), (R-Y), -(R-Y), both at a rate of twice the color subcarrier frequency (2f sc ).
  • the demodulated color signal sequences are I, -I, I, -I, and Q, -Q, Q, -Q, also at the 2f sc rate.
  • the color mixture signals commonly occupy bandwidths of 0-0.5 MHz for the (B-Y), (R-Y) and Q signals, and 0-1.5 MHz for the I signal. Accordingly, sampling at a rate of 2f sc is excessive by comparison with the Nyquist sampling rates associated with these bandwidths, and undesirably includes high frequency noise in the color signals. It is therefore desirable to reduce the sampling rate of the color signals, which also reduces the complexity of subsequent color signal processing circuitry. One way of doing this is simply to discard signal samples. However, since each chrominance sample was uniquely derived, the samples may include out of band noise, which will alias into the color signals if samples are simply discarded. It is thus desirable to reduce the sampling rate of the chrominance signals and eliminate out of band noise in a system which utilizes a simple circuit configuration.
  • a system for filtering and demodulating digital color mixture signals, wherein the signals are filtered to remove out-of-band noise prior to completion of the demodulation process.
  • interleaved digital chrominance signal samples are first demodulated by a signal related in frequency to the video subcarrier to obtain interleaved color mixture signal samples of different sampling phases at baseband frequencies.
  • the interleaved color mixture signal samples are applied to a digital filter at a rate which is a multiple of the color subcarrier frequency.
  • the weighting coefficients of the filter are selected to obtain a bandwidth which passes the color mixture signal while removing out of band noise.
  • the input signal sequence to the digital filter contains interleaved color mixture signal samples, alternate stages of the filter shift register are tapped, so that the output sequence will comprise filtered and interleaved color mixture signal samples.
  • An output switch accomplishes phase demodulation of the output sequence by selecting samples at a reduced sampling rate in accordance with the Nyquist criterion of the color signals and produces either one or two output sequences of filtered and fully demodulated color mixture signals.
  • tapped shift register stages of the digital filter are coupled to two different sets of weighting coefficients and signal combining stages.
  • the filter outputs may thus exhibit unequal bandwidths for filtered I and Q signals, which are commensurate with the desired bandwidths of the filtered signals.

  • a television signal is received by an antenna 10 and successively processed by a tuner 12, intermediate frequency circuits 14, and a video detector 16, which are constructed in a conventional manner.
  • the detected video signal at the output of the detector 16 is applied to the input of an analog to digital (A/D) converter 20.
  • the A/D converter 20 samples the video signal at a rate equal to four times the color subcarrier frequency (4f sc ), and produces digital samples of the video signal at this rate.
  • Each digital sample, or word may comprise, for example, eight bits produced in parallel. In an eight-bit system, the analog video signal will be quantized to one of two-hundred and fifty-six discrete levels.
  • the 4f sc sampling clock for the A/D converter 20 is developed by a clock generator 22, which produces the signal in phase and frequency synchronism with the color burst signal of the analog video signal provided by the video detector 16.
  • the digitized video signal produced by the A/D converter 20 is applied to an input of a digital comb filter 24, which may be constructed to operate as described in the article "Digital Television Image Enhancement” by John P. Rossi, 84 Journal of the SMPTE at 545-51 (1974).
  • the comb filter 24 produces a separated luminance signal, Y, which is applied to a luminance signal processor (not shown).
  • the comb filter 24 also produces a separated chrominance signal C, consisting of a sequence of interleaved chrominance signal samples of different sampling phases, which is applied to the input of a chroma amplifier 32.
  • the chroma amplifier 32 amplifies the chrominance signal in response to a viewer controlled color saturation control signal, and applies the amplified chrominance signal to the input of a digital chroma peaker 34.
  • the chroma peaker 34 is a digital filter which modifies the response characteristic exhibited by the chrominance signal at this point to compensate for the response characteristic of the intermediate frequency circuits 14.
  • the intermediate frequency circuits generally locate the color subcarrier frequency on the lower frequency slope of the I.F.
  • the chroma peaker 34 compensates for this rolloff to cause the chrominance signal to exhibit an essentially flat amplitude versus frequency response. If the I.F. circuits 14 are designed to provide an essentially flat amplitude versus frequency response for color signals, the chroma peaker 34 may be replaced by a chorma bandpass filter with a response characteristic located about the color subcarrier frequency.
  • the peaked or bandpassed digital chrominance signals are applied to a signal multiplexer 40.
  • the signal multiplexer 40 includes a multiplexer switch 44, having inputs coupled to receive noninverted digital chrominance signals, and chrominance signals which have been inverted by an inverting circuit 42.
  • the multiplexer switch 44 is switched at the color subcarrier frequency (f sc ) by a signal developed by the clock generator 22.
  • the switch 44 alternately supplies inverted and uninverted chrominance signal samples at its output. For a 4f sc sampling signal, the sequence of samples provided by the switch 44 consists of interleaved signal samples of two types in a quadrature relationship.
  • the signal multiplexer 40 thereby accomplishes subcarrier frequency demodulation of the digital chrominance signals, with signal samples of the two types recurring at a 2f sc rate.
  • the chrominance signals have been demodulated to baseband although the interleaved components remain in a quadrature relationship.
  • the output of the signal multiplexer 40 is coupled to an input of a digital transversal filter and demodulator 50.
  • the filter and demodulator 50 includes a serial shift register 52, weighting function circuits 60, a signal combiner 54, and a demultiplexer switch 70.
  • the shift register 52 in this embodiment comprises a twelve-stage shift register with stages labeled ⁇ 1 through ⁇ 12 .
  • the chrominance signal samples produced at the output of the signal multiplexer 40 are applied to the first stage ⁇ 1 of the shift register 52 and to a weighting function circuit 61. In this example, the chrominance signal samples are shifted though the shift register 52 by the 4f sc clock signal.
  • the outputs of shift register stages ⁇ 2 , ⁇ 4 , ⁇ 6 , ⁇ 8 , ⁇ 10 and ⁇ 12 are tapped, with the output taps coupled to inputs of weighting function circuits 62, 63, 64, 65, 66 and 67, respectively.
  • the outputs of the weighting function circuits 60 are coupled to inputs of the signal combiner 54, the output of which is coupled to the input of the demultiplexer switch 70.
  • the demultiplexer switch 70 alternately selects signal samples produced by the signal combiner 54 in response to switching signals 1/2f sc (R-Y) and 1/2f sc (B-Y).
  • FIG. 2a shows a waveform 260, which corresponds to several cycles of the analog color burst signal, or a signal aligned in phase and frequency therewith.
  • the clock generator 22 responds to the color burst signal by generating a 4f sc sampling pulse train 262 for the A/D converter 20 and the shift register 52, as shown in FIG. 2b.
  • the discrete color signal samples will correspond to -(B-Y). (R-Y), (B-Y) and -(R-Y) over one subcarrier cycle, as indicated in FIG. 2b.
  • a chrominance signal pulse train of this form is applied to the signal multiplexer 40.
  • the multiplexer switch 40 alternately couples pairs of uninverted and inverted chrominance signals to its output under control of the f sc switching signal, which is shown as waveform 264 in FIG. 2c.
  • the multiplexer switch 44 passes uninverted signals through to its output, in this case the (R-Y) and (B-Y) samples occurring at 90° and 180° with respect to the burst waveform 260.
  • inverted signal samples from inverting circuit 42 are selected and coupled through to the multiplexer output.
  • the inverting circuit converts the -(R-Y) and -(B-Y) samples to (R-Y) and (B-Y) samples at this time.
  • the output of the signal multiplexer 40 is a continuous sequence of positive chrominance signal samples at a rate of four times the color subcarrier frequency, comprising baseband interleaved color mixture signals.
  • This sequence of chrominance signal samples is shifted into and through the shift register 52 by the 4f sc signal.
  • (B-Y) samples and (R-Y) samples are alternately applied to weighting function circuits 60.
  • (B-Y) signal samples will be momentarily stored in the even-numbered shift register stages ⁇ 2 , ⁇ 4 , ⁇ 6 , ⁇ 8 , ⁇ 10 and ⁇ 12 , and a (B-Y) sample will also be applied to weighting function circuit 61.
  • (R-Y) signal samples will be stored in the untapped odd-numbered stages at this time.
  • the tapped (B-Y) signal samples are then weighted by the weighting function circuits 60, and the tap-weighted signals are combined by the signal combiner 54, which produces a filtered (B-Y) signal at its output.
  • the (R-Y) samples are shifted into the tapped stages and the (B-Y) samples are shifted to the untapped stages.
  • the (R-Y) signal samples are then weighted and combined to produce a filtered (R-Y) signal at the output of combiner 54.
  • a sequence of filtered and interleaved (B-Y) and (R-Y) signals are produced at the output of the signal combiner 54 at the 4f sc signal rate.
  • the weighting function coefficient values are chosen to provide a lowpass filter response characteristic at the output of signal combiner 54, with a passband of approximately zero to 0.5 MHz.
  • the filtered chrominance signal sequence at the output of the signal combiner 54 is then simultaneously reduced in sampling rate and quadrature demodulated by sampling the signal sequence using differently phased signals of one-half the color subcarrier frequency. This is accomplished by the demultiplexer switch 70, in response to sampling signals 1/2f sc (R-Y) and 1/2f sc (B-Y).
  • the 1/2f sc (R-Y) signal is shown as solid line waveform 266 in FIG. 2d, which samples the filtered signal sequence during the occurrence of an (R-Y) sample every other burst frequency cycle.
  • the demultiplexer switch 70 produces filtered and demodulated output signals (R-Y)' and (B-Y)', with signal values being switched at a 1/2f sc rate.
  • the 1/2f sc sampling rate allows a Nyquist bandwidth of 0.895 MHz in the NTSC system, which is sufficient for the zero to 0.5 MHz passband of the color mixture signals.
  • the filtered output signals, which occur at one-half the color subcarrier rate, are thus substantially free of out of band noise and aliasing components, due to the 0.5 MHz cutoff frequency of the filter.
  • the clock generator 22 of FIG. 1 may be constructed as shown in FIG. 3.

  • the 2-bit counter 90 counts the pulses of the 4f sc sampling signal.
  • the count of the counter 90 is synchronized during each burst interval by the comparator 86.
  • the comparator 86 produces an output pulse during each cycle of the burst signal when the burst signal 260 at the negative input of the comparator exceeds the V TH threshold during the time interval t 1 -t 2 shown in FIG. 2b.

  • the arrangement of FIG. 4 may be simplified if desired by eliminating the adder and applying the output signals of the exclusive-OR gates to the digital filter 50 directly. This, however, causes a one-bit "error" in the output signals of the multiplexer 40 during every pair of inverted signal samples. But since this "error" recurs at the rate of the inverted signal samples, which is the subcarrier rate, it will be effectively eliminated by the digital filter, which exhibits a passband cutoff below the subcarrier frequency.
